The only way to make this 2026 Audi RS 6 Avant performance automotive photography shoot happen was to start early enough for Old Montréal’s streets to be free of tourists, cars and harsh uneven light, however not so early that it was still dark. I still had to get ready at 05:00 to make sure that by 07:00 we were ready to shoot.

The client was not used to waking up so early on weekends, however it was worth his while after he received the first sample images that same Saturday afternoon!

(Note: In parts of Canada and the USA, front number plates are not issued which is perfect for automotive photography as they tend to be an eyesore and a privacy pain. In provinces or states where they are mandatory,such as British Columbia when I move to Vancouver, I edit them out or blur them)
